NGF-induced TRPV1-labeled nerve fiber sprouting. Notes. (a) The silver staining images of synovial tissues (20x, scale bar = 200 μm). (b) The immunohistochemical staining images of synovial tissues, in which the target protein turns to brown particles after staining (20x, scale bar = 200 μm). (c) The immunofluorescence staining images of TrKA, TRPV1, and PGP9.5 in the synovial tissues (40x, scale bar = 100 μm).
